I stumbled upon the <a href="http://www.edenspiekermann.com/de/about/manifesto/">Edenspiekermann Manifesto</a>, which I find simple and true. I could use something like that as well. This is what it says:</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>We work for your customers.</strong> We may have to take their side at times.</li>
<li><strong>Challenge us.</strong> Complacency is the ennemy of great work.</li>
<li><strong>We don&#8217;t give answers.</strong> Unless we can explore your question.</li>
<li><strong>We are not suppliers.</strong> Partnerships give the best results.</li>
<li><strong>Talk to us.</strong> We thrive on feedback.</li>
<li><strong>Trust us</strong>. You hired us because we can do something you can not do.</li>
<li><strong>Pay us.</strong> Our work adds up to your bottom line, so invest in our future.</li>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>J&#8217;étais sur le site de <a href="http://spin.co.uk">Spin</a>, un petit studio de design de Londres que j&#8217;adore. J&#8217;ai cliqué sur un lien et pouf&nbsp;! À mon grand étonnement, le résultat ne s&#8217;accordait pas du tout avec la maquette publiée sur leur site portfolio. </p>
<p>Je ne crois pas que c&#8217;est parce que le «&nbsp;nouveau&nbsp;» design n&#8217;a pas été implémenté. J&#8217;ai plutôt l&#8217;impression qu&#8217;on a retouché le superbe design pour en faire quelque chose de très ordinaire, voir médiocre.</p>
<p>Voici le avant (je présume) et le après :</p>
<p><a href="/images/esc-design.png"><img src="/images/esc-design.png" width="470" height="765" alt="Esc before and after" /></a></p>

<p><a href="http://blog.marieclaudedoyon.com/rotterdamism/">L&#8217;hiver passé</a> j&#8217;ai travaillé en tant qu&#8217;infographiste sur ce projet en collaboration avec Gyz. Et lors de ma visite à Rotterdam en avril dernier, j&#8217;ai eu la chance de voir l&#8217;exposition à la défunte boutique <em>Moose</em>. C&#8217;est à mon tour maintenant de la présenter, à Montréal, en première nord-américaine (elle sera également présentée à Chicago éventuellement).</p>
<p>Il y aura un petit vernissage le 28 octobre à 17 h, à <a href="http://station-c.com">Station C</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Note :</strong> Il est possible d&#8217;acheter les sérigraphies au coût de 30 € chacune. Contactez Gyz directement via <a href="http://gyzlariviere.com">gyzlariviere.com</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Back in 2006, after coming back from the Netherlands, I registered to an intensive summer course at UQAM called &#8220;International Design with Karel Martens&#8221;. Mr. Martens is considered one of the greatest designers of the Netherlands and thought (and still does I think) at <a href="http://www.werkplaatstypografie.org/">Werkplaats Typografie</a>.</p>
<p><img src="/images/gofbs.jpg" alt="The Greatest of the Biggest Song" /></p>
<p>We worked on a book on the theme of &#8220;link&#8221; and I used an absurd poem of my friend and former housemate from Rotterdam, Rogier Stomp aka kO nOrderisk, to represent the subject.</p>
<p>kO&#8217;s poetry is a mixture of absurd humor and society critic. There is a genuine influence of Russian Absurdism in his work. His poem &#8220;The Greatest of the Biggest Song&#8221; which I used in Mr. Marten&#8217;s class has now turned into a real book published by <a href="http://uitgeverijnadorst.nl">Uitgeverij Nadorst</a> which I had the honor to design. The book is called &#8220;The Greatest of the Biggest&#8221; and is, in itself, a critic on the trend of always wanting bigger, better, more&#8230; instead of savouring what is.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m waiting to receive my copy in the mail but, in the meantime, here&#8217;s the cover page I designed for kO&#8217;s first poetry book.</p>
<p><img src="/images/gofb-cover.png" alt="The Greatest of the Biggest" /><br />
Published in September 2009<br />
64 pages<br />
12,5 x 20 cm<br />
Paperback, 2 colours<br />
In Dutch &#038; English<br />
ISBN: 978 94 90338 02 2</p>
